Real name: Kjell Øyvind Braaten

Effective period / Period of releases: 2021

Musician, composer, producer and sound engineer from Norway.

I started my search for the origin of music in the mid-nineties. Around the millennium, his focus shifted toward Norse music traditions and their roots. Out of this, the band Ehwaz came to life in 1999. His primary focus has stayed there in the last twenty years, both musically and in his lecturing on old Norse music history.

He started composing music at an early age. At seventeen, he was a certified conductor and worked as a music instructor. He finished his sound engineer and music producer education when he turned twenty-one. Sincehis debut with Origami Galaktika in 1995, he has participated in more than one hundred releases and worked with many projects across genres worldwide.
He has also composed music for movies, TV-series and plays, produced albums, and added tracks as a studio musician for many other artists.
